I'm gonna say 222 Democratic seats in the House, but a gut wrenching 50-50 tie in the Senate (we'll lose Tennessee & Virginia, but win in Montana, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Maryland, Rhode Island, and Missouri. In the end, Lieberman will organize with the Democrats.

Facing what would, in the real world, be a rout at the polls and the loss of both houses for the Republics, vote-flipping will be used in EVERY race that looks close enough to steal. Given a fair vote count, the GOP loses its ass and the flashlight it once used to find it.

11. He's said pretty explicitly that he'll caucus with out side. He's not a fool...

and he has to know how seasonal any Republican niceness toward him right now must be. Lieberman didn't get into the Senate by being gullible (or by being a saint). He knows where he's got his chips invested and it's not on the majority side of the aisle. Lieberman's voting record is far far to the left of Lincoln Chafee. There's not reason to think he'll jump sides other than the fact that you don't like him.

But I think that a LOT more seats are gonna turn than what the MS media is saying. There will be some BIG turnovers, like Reynolds and possibly Hastert. In the Senate we'll keep Maryland, pick up Tennessee, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Montana. Holy Joe will retain his seat in CT and organize with the Dems. It's too close to call in NJ and MO for my magic 8-ball. Cruella will go down to a flaming defeat in Florida with <25% of the vote. Governorships will go overwhelmingly Dem, including MA, MD, and FL.
